Robert Sanchez is expected to leave Stamford Bridge after Chelsea signed Argentina No 1 Emiliano Martinez from Premier League rivals Aston Villa.

Chelsea’s keeper Sanchez makes deadline-day move to Como

Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has joined Como on a one-year loan deal, the Serie A club announced on Tuesday. The 28-year-old arrived at Stamford Bridge in 2023 from Brighton but failed to make an impact during his time in London. Following the signing of Argentine star Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa, Sanchez struggled to convince during Chelsea's opening Premier League match against Fulham, leading manager Xabi Alonso to switch to Martinez as the first-choice goalkeeper.

Como coach Cesc Fabregas expressed his delight in welcoming Sanchez to the club, praising the Spanish goalkeeper's experience and suitability for their style of play. The Italian outfit will also sign former Chelsea center-back Trevoh Chalobah and 26-year-old Italy striker Moise Kean on loan with an obligation to purchase.
